Renting a boat to explore the Atlantic waters is one of the most popular things to do . Here’s a look at some of the best boat rentals available, as well as the exciting activities you can enjoy on board.
Boat Hire Without a Skipper or License
This is a wonderful option for taking family and friends out on the water, with you at the helm. Bareboats are small, easy to navigate, and don’t require a skipper or a license, making them ideal for anyone looking to captain their own adventure.
We recommend these options to help you feel like a sailor as you explore the coastline:

- Yacht charter in the South without skipper (no license required)
Sailing Boat Rentals
Including a sailing boat rental among your things to do is highly recommended. These well-equipped boats are perfect for a relaxed day out on the sea, with features that enhance your journey.
The itinerary often includes visits to popular spots where dolphins, whales, and other marine life can be seen. Smaller sailboats typically accommodate around 12 passengers, and we’re happy to adjust the plan to fit your group’s preferences. Simply message us on WhatsApp to discuss customization options.
Sailing trips offer a chance to enjoy privacy with loved ones. You can also stop at favorite diving spots and snorkel in the area’s crystal-clear waters, discovering the region’s rich marine biodiversity.
Here are two of our recommended sailboat options:
- Small sailboat charter in the South
- Sailing yacht charter with Kosamui
Boats Without Skipper (with License)
For those who want a bit more freedom, we offer boats that you can pilot independently. With a valid boat license, you can explore the coastal waters at your own pace, bringing along family and friends.
